Who We Are

History

Friends of Animals is a non-profit international animal advocacy organization, established in New York in 1957. We work to cultivate a respectful view of nonhuman animals, free-living and domestic. Our goal is to free animals from cruelty and institutionalized exploitation around the world.

Thanks to the loyal support of our members and friends all throughout the world, we have been able to come far from our humble beginnings. With their help, we have achieved five decades of growth and each year we actively meet the needs of more animals on more fronts than any animal advocacy group of our kind.

Priscilla Feral has been the president of Friends of Animals since 1987 and currently works out of FoA's International Headquarters in Darien, Connecticut.

Our experienced staff and consultants, including scientists, professional writers, attorneys, and community activists, actively address issues facing animals today and work together to create a diverse and viable agenda for positive change.
